I Stopped at One

Richard Shekari

I Stopped at One
Chorus:
I tried to count my blessings one by one,
But I stopped at one—for You are enough.
You’re all I need in this life; You lift me when I’m down.
You walk with me through the rain—such a loving friend.

Verse 1:
I’ve tested the world and seen with my eyes;
It offers nothing but sorrow and lies.
It’s full of darkness as it spins—I’ve seen it with my eyes.
Oh, how I long for His coming tomorrow.

Chorus:
I tried to count my blessings one by one,
But I stopped at one—for You are enough.
You’re all I need in this life; You lift me when I’m down.
You walk with me through the rain—such a loving friend.

Verse 2:
I’ve chased after dreams that faded like smoke,
Held on to promises that broke.
But You remained through the silence and storm,
With arms open wide—so gentle, so warm.
There’s no one like You, my King;
You lifted me up from the dirt and sin. Chorus 2
